DOD Rubberneck FS3X Input - Expression?

Post by Blood_mountain »

Does anyone know what would happen if you plugged an expression pedal into the FS3X pedal input on the DOD Rubberneck Delay? Nothing? Something? Everything? Explosions? What?

It controls the Rubberneck function in a very useful way, in my experience. Toe up: regular operation (green LED); toe down: rubbernecking engaged (red LED). So keeping it toe down is like holding your foot on the Rubberneck switch but you're free to dance around and such. I have two Rubbernecks and sometimes control them with one Boss dual expression pedal with the sweep inverted on one jack, so I can simultaneously engage rubbernecking on one while disengaging it on the other.

Oh very cool. Thanks for the response! I guess because the FS3X would be on off, it makes sense that the expression pedal would also just turn that parameter on and off. No issues with using an expression pedal rather than that foot switch? That you’ve noticed anyway?

I just realized I have the operation switched around above--it's toe down for regular operation, toe up for rubberneck.

No, I haven't noticed any problems stemming from using an expression pedal like this. It doesn't seem to affect the Regen or modulation at all. It seems like it should, but it doesn't.
